Ok, so, this is my submission, the Arcade Set.
Appearance:
The arcade machine is viewed diagonally from the front, as in the image. I don’t know what most of the colours would be, though.
Hat
The Arcade Hat is, well, like the top of an arcade machine. It has a sticky-outy bit at the top, before going inward to the arcade’s screen, which would be the face. The face is quite simple, with two large, square eyes and a big smiling mouth that looks like a square bracket. The background of the screen is dark green, and the eyes and mouth are black.
Bodypiece
The Arcade Bodypiece (definitely room for a better phrase) has another sticky-out bit, this time on the bottom of the screen area, which is where the controls are. There are three buttons on the left in a triangular pattern, and a joystick on the right. The arms are bundles of wires wrapped in black rubber insulation, with the insulation broken at the ends, revealing the wires which act as fingers. The rubber insulation comes from the back of the machine, where you can’t see it. This is referenced in the tooltip.
Lower-body-piece (you need to get better names for me)
The bottom bit of the machine has a vent on the side, and two wheels on the bottom. That’s pretty much all.
Other possible features
These are ideas that I had that could give the costume a bit more character.
- The tooltip for the bodypiece could say something like “Let’s see where those wires come fro- oh.” as a reference to Terraria’s 2D-ness.
- The normal “hurt” sounds could be made more robotic when wearing the hat.
- The vent on the lower body could spew smoke when you got damaged/the less health you had i.e. no smoke at full health.
- There could be text on the top and sides that say “Terraria” or something.
- If you stand in one spot for a while, it could say “Shutting down” and show a red power symbol before the wheels retract and the screen goes completely black. When you move again, the wheels come out again and the face flickers before coming into view again.
- If you talk to the Cyborg when wearing the full suit, he has a chance to say something like “Finally! One of my kind!”
- If you talk with the Truffle, he has a very rare chance to say “I used to LOVE playing games on these! Like the one where you had to try and defeat the plumber!” as a reference to Mario and him being a mushroom, like a goomba, but that might have some copyright stuff with it, so maybe not.
EDIT: Here’s a bad pixel art of what it could be like. I decided to make it blue, but you can choose any colour you think fits.
EDIT #2: So, I gave the image some extra details, and now it looks a bit better.
